RIP, Coach Sean. :(

Hello all! :D Hello! Sorry I've been gone for a week, but this flu thing really knocked me on my butt...I'm better, no fever, but the tanks still just aren't full yet, takes awhile to get the energy back. :o Anyhow, since I missed a week of STS, I'm going to go back and repeat the last...

Yes, I tested positive on the influenza quick-test. However, until then I was wondering if it was all the same thing. I'm feeling better this afternoon and have only purchased one more yoga tape since my last post. :o No workout today; hopefully yoga tomorrow then back to sts the next day...

Hello everyone! :) Sorry I haven't been posting very frequently, but this week has been definitely not typical-first I get a spider bite, which is healing nicely; then, I came down with the flu. Had a flu shot, but I know it's not 100% protection. The major, earth-shattering news is that...

Hello, everyone! :) Cokonkel, I think it's the fatigue in the muscles that cause the strain when you do kettlebells. When you start lifting heavy, you also have to really honor and respect the rest/recovery period. All those micro-tears have to heal, and kettlebells just aggravate the tears...

Hello! Yup, kettlebells and STS do not mix...sorry you got hurt. :( I did Bob Harper's Total Body Transformation yesterday, which has a kettlebell-type swing segment, and my tendonitis just erupted in both forearms. I taped them and continued, but no more kettlebells until STS is over...

Hello, everyone! :) Carolyn, LOL at the Snowbank Plyo; no wonder you've got DOMS! I'm a few days behind with posting...Sunday was STS Disc 20 Legs; yesterday was LIS Athletic Training and 3 mile Leslie Sansone dvd...Note to self...NEVER do LIS Athletic Training the day after STS Legs...

Hello, everyone! :) Missy, sorry for sending bad weather your way! :o Started next week's rotation a day early-did Disc 19 Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps. My husband comes in and heckles me when I do cardio, so I'm learning to stick to weight lifting on the weekends. :o

Hello, yes, I am fine, there were several in the area this morning-damage and injuries, no fatalities thankfully. Round 2 is starting to get organized, so we're heading downstairs to the storm shelter in a few minutes.

I live just outside Huntsville, Alabama. :) Except for the six-hour car ride, we are practically neighbors. :D I love south Georgia; it very much has it's own charming culture, and the people are so friendly. Have you had any severe weather the last few days? North Alabama might be in for...

Hello everyone! Welcome zumbadancer! :D We are definitely bada##es with our callouses, or maybe you folks are...I won't call myself a bada## until I can do 5 unassisted pullups...:o Got a ways to go for that... :o Yesterday was Disc 18 Back and Biceps, then 3 miles on the treadmill. I'm...

Definitely your legs will decide for you!!! Today is STS Disc 18 Back and Biceps; good thing, I'm too sore for anything else except maybe a walk or yoga. :o I'll check in again later. :)

The older I get, the more important it is for my shoes to be in great shape. I get new ones every two or three months. :)

I have been getting this message for several days, but my anti-virus would stop it...I was getting it in the STS forum too, but I think it has been cleared up because no messages today.

Hello all! :) I've been up since 5:00 am too, didn't think to check online... Letterboxing sounds really, really neat! :) Took me a few minutes to figure out what TTOTM meant.... :o Thanks to bioidentical hormone replacement, I get to experience the joy of having TTOTM :rolleyes: but it's...

Missyt, 30,000 steps! Wow! I need a nap just thinking about that much walking! :o Colleen, it is indeed sad to see someone with Alzheimer's or senile dementia; my grandmother had it the last few years of her life; she was very aware of what was happening and it just broke my heart to see her...

Hello all! :D Missyt, I hope your shoulder gets better; mine complained a bit the first week of STS, but thankfully have settled down. Right now, it's my heel spurs that are acting up; they are not liking ballet and yoga, since I have to go barefoot. :confused: Today was Bob Harper's Yoga...

Hello, everyone! :) First of all, a big thanks to those folks who encouraged me to add the STS banner into the signature line-Figuring out how to do it helped me get organized with the Workout Manager! :D Colleen, I'm sorry about the elliptical trainer, but the Turbo Tower and step will is...

Hello everyone! :) Today was another cardio day; a 4 mile walk outside, then Element Ballet Conditioning this afternoon. :cool: Has anyone included Athletic Training or Tri Sets into the STS rotation? I suppose these would be classified as a fourth weight training day. I want to do these...

Hello everyone! :) As requested, here are a few personal details: I'm 49, live in north Alabama, married 20 years; DH and I have two children, 8 and 18 (zippity Jr in my avatar was about three years old in that pic). I don't work now for health reasons, but I have a business and medical...
